Align and Size Input Boxes

[jacque427]

In my sign up page I have a few questions that I ask.

I am using the CSS to align (or float) my boxes to the left.

But some of them will not float.

Here is the relevant code.

Will *not* float left...

<tr>
    <td class="plainBox"><table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2">
      <tr>
        <td class="questions" valign="top"><p><b><?php echo ENTRY_HOWDIDYOUHEAR; ?></b><br></td>
          <td class="questions" valign="top"><br><p><br><?php echo zen_draw_input_field('howdidyouhear') . '&nbsp;' . (zen_not_null(ENTRY_HOWDIDYOUHEAR_TEXT) ? '<span class="inputRequirement">' . ENTRY_HOWDIDYOUHEAR_TEXT . '</span>': ''); ?></td>
      </tr>
	  	  <tr>

The howdidyouhear text box for input just will not align to the left. As you can see this is the first question asked. All but one other aligns left just fine.

Here is the relevant CSS...

}
TD.questions {
  font-size: 11px;
  line-height: 1.5;
  float: left;

To see for yourself how it looks go to;

In addition, right before I posted this I looked the page in IE. It looks completely different than it does in Firefox.

Oh, and how do I make the input boxes larger?

What version of Zen Cart is this???

Your stylesheet is one from a pre 1.3.x version ad if this is also your version then all of this is contained in table cells.

If not and you are using this older stylesheet, scrap it and begin with one matched to your version.

ZC 1.2.6

I'll try posting an align in the table cell and will repost here.

Ok, tried <td class="main" valign="top" align="left"> and it didn't work.

As I recall, you willhave to rearrange the tables in the appropriate file and I think that this is create_account something??

After giving myself fits and literally losing sleep the answer was as simple as removing the 2nd table cell within the row.

But...How do I make the input box larger?

Don't know what "Input Box" you refer to but if for a value that is in the DB these are auto sized based upon the "var" size in the db for this value...So increase the "var" in the DB table/record for it

I'm referring to the box the customer inputs the data into. The visable one.

I've got the database all set up so that it takes the correct amount of characters, just want to make the customer visable portion larger.
